Does someone know if it is possible to access the IR-Blaster of the Revue programatically?
I need to change the Input-Source of the TV, but i cannot find any information about that.
There isn't an API on Google TV to do that. Use Anymote to change the TV input source.

Is there a way to programmatically list available input devices and allow to change the current one being used for the WebSpeech API?
I'm aware Chrome shows a video icon on the address bar where a device can be chosen, but I want to make this setting available on the web app itself.
Yes, there's a way- take a look at https://webaudiodemos.appspot.com/input/index.html, it lets the user select the input. PS: This works just for chrome.
Also you can look this example using webrtc, however I'm not sure if it can be integrated with webspeechapi: https://webrtc.github.io/samples/src/content/devices/input-output/
Also, take a look at this post: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/10/media-devices It has a lot of information
Sorry to burst your buble but it can't be done, the only way to have access to the devices is using the system API's and the web browser limits your access to specific API's that he chooses to expose, unfortunately for you the device related ones are not exposed.
On a side note, think of the repercussions of exposing your devices to every website you visit...
I want to know what channel users is viewing using my apps, to display related real-time information.
Does it support and allow us to do that?
You can use Window plugin from SEF plugin API. There is GetCurrentChannel_Name function to get channel name.
You can also use TV plugin - there is information about program.
I was looking for a way to use user's tones that were transfered manually from the Itunes.
I know that it's impossible to use Apple system tones but i want to use only users privet tones.
thanks
You can't access the users ringtones, not even the custom ringtones added via iTunes. There is no API that will allow this.
I would like to know if it is possible to pass an address from an SQlite data base to GPS or Google maps and have it show on a map at the press of a button. If anyone is aware of a tuturial that could help me that would be appriciated.
I would also like to get current location and show local places on map, also populated from the same database. Thanks in advance.
In order to translate address to lat/long coordinate you will have to use the Google directions API since apple is not supporting forward geocoding.
You can take a look at this API - pretty straight forward:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/directions/
for iOS 4.x and below you will need to use the Google API but in iOS 5 Apple has implemented a really nice foreword geocoding API.
I couldn't find it in the documentation, so I'd ask: is there a way to get/set the ringtone for a specific user in the address book (programatically, of course)?
No, there isn't an official API to do that. Submiting a feature request is all you can do.
